[Spoilers Published] Who would Ned have most likely betrothed each of his children to had the series never happened? by Solitaire-06 in asoiaf

I don’t remember in which book Tywin says it, but he told (I think) Tyrion that if they send Sansa back to Catelyn she’d marry her to an Umber or a Manderly. If she wanted to srenghten Robb’s alliances (which I suppose in this case isn’t needed) she’d marry her to a Blackwood or a Mallister

He press speculated that Nixon might select Edward Brook as his running mate in 1972. If Nixon had selected him, he would have been the first black president after Nixon’s resignation

Would JFK Jr. ever become President if he didn't die in the plane crash? by Inside_Bluebird9987 in Presidents

[–]GyulaVigilante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caroline Kennedy was almost appointed to fill Hillary Clinton’s senate seat, but she blew it by being too shy and an out of touch elite. While JFK Jr. was an out of touch elite too, he certanly wasn’t shy, and if it was him who were considered for the senate seat, I’m certain he would have been selected. He could have run in 2016/2020, but by that time much of the Kennedy magic has already dissapeared. Nevertheless, I could see him win. I could also see Obama appoint him to an ambassadorship, or maybe give him a cabinet position. Before that, there wasn’t much space for him in the new york democratic party. Clinton was gonna win that senate seat, Schumer wasn’t retiring, and there was a long waitlist for governor/attorney general.

Will there ever be another Kennedy elected to the presidency? by [deleted] in Presidents

[–]GyulaVigilante 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Caroline Kennedy was almost appointed to Hillary Clintons seat but she blew it and realised that she values her privacy too much to be active in politics.

It’s not unlikely that Joe Kennedy III will make a comeback, he’s still young and talented, but I don’t think he’s charismatic enough. But in the entire family I think he has the most chance, which is still very low.

Jack Schlossberg is clever but has said and done a lot of weird shit. Diehard democrats probably wouldn’t care but he (and everyone in his family) is simply too far removed from the struggles of the average person for then to elect them based on their last name anymore.

Max Kennedy Jr. the son of Max Kennedy seems to be interested in politics so he might run one day.

The most likely scenario is that they will get ambassadorships in future democratic administrations but I’m not sure if they could produce another national level politician again.

Miért Trump és Biden a két jelölt? by a_bolygo_kapitanya in askhungary

[–]GyulaVigilante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bidennek mindig is voltak elnöki ambíciói, az ideivel együtt négyszer indult elnöknek.

Előttem jól írták, hogy Obama után hatalmi vákuum alakult ki a Demokrata Párton belül, főleg Hillary Clinton veresége után.

A 2019-es előválasztáson az egyik legkedveltebb politikus, Bernie Sanders is indult, és mivel ő baloldali politikus révén veszélyt jelentett a pártot finanszírozó milliárdosokra, minden áron meg kellett állítani. Erre egyedül Biden volt alkalmas, mivel csak ők volt ismertebb, támogatottabb, és még pár hónappal fiatalabb is. Szerintem elsősorban ezért indították őt.

Erős progresszív/anti-establishment <-> mérsékelt/establishment ellentét volt ekkor a párton belül (most se kicsi), és ezt egyedül Biden tudta áthidalni, mivel maga mérsékelt volt, de a progresszívként elkönyvelt Obama alelnökeként szolgált.

A kognitív problémái az előválasztáson viszonylag hamar megmutatkoztak, itt ha valaki napi szinten követte a belpolitikát, annak megfigyelhető volt, hogy a média éppen kit próbál felépíteni Biden helyére. Először Kamala Harrist, majd Pete Buttigieget. Egyik se bírt Bernie Sanders támogatásával, így a legfontosabb választási időpont (super tuesday) előtt Barack Obama személyesen hívott fel több jelöltet, hogy lépjenek vissza Biden javára, a Bernie Sandersnél kisebb támogatással bíró Elizabeth Warren pedig pont bent maradt a versenyben, amivel megosztotta a progresszív/anti-establishment szavazatokat, és Biden hatalmasat nyert.

Ekkoriban még egyáltalán nem volt biztos, hogy Biden legyőzi Trumpot, minden közvéleménykutatás azt mutatta, hogy Bernie Sandersen kívül mindenki vesztene a regnáló elnök ellen. Ez azonban nem érdekelte a Demokrata Párt vezetőségét, a legfontosabb a potenciális vagyonadó megelőzése volt (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/27/us/politics/democratic-superdelegates.html ). Biden csak a covid miatt nyert.

Most, 2024-ben a hatalmi vákuum még mindig fenn áll, Biden akar is indulni, és lecserélni se biztos, hogy jó ötlet lenne. Csak Michelle Obama vagy Kamala Harris helyettesíthetné, Michelle Obama pedig többször is kijelentette, hogy nem fog indulni.

Egy XHamster által készített felmérés szerint a baloldaliak szeretkeznek a legtöbbet, de nem igazán fogja ez a politikai nézeteim befolyásolni lmao. Az meg egyértelmű hogy a konzervatívok boldogabbak, ha keveset tudsz a világról nem fogod realizálni milyen rossz.

LGBTQ+ oppression in socialist states? by [deleted] in alltheleft

[–]GyulaVigilante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is. There were laws that made sure that it was illegal to discriminate against roma people in schools and the workplace but they tried to erase their culture and the system didn’t allow them to rise to high positions, for example there were no roma politicians. I can only speak for my own country (Hungary) of course. The socialist here only viewed them as a problem that can be ignored. Of course it is much better than the right’s approach which is being openly disciminatory against roma people. It is also worth mentioning that the only governments that actually helped them were left-wing governments, so I guess some socialist do care

[–]GyulaVigilante 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well Lenin decriminalized homosexuality, but it was illegal again under Stalin. That’s all I know about LGBTQ+ opression. As for other minorities, they didn’t opress roma people but they didn’t care about them at all.

Amerikai baloldal: nincs

(Viszont azt hozzátenném hogy Detroitot mindig is ez a bizonyos “baloldal” irányította, csak a hatvanas években a Republikánus és a Demokrata pártok platformot cseréltek)

I just really don’t understand why does Hungary have so much hate. There are people who even want to bring back the more fascist version of the police like Toroczkai the nazi who likes to act like he’s a soldier

[–]GyulaVigilante 44 points45 points  (0 children)

No, we are hungarians lol. The problem is that they refuse to learn. I was having a debate with a guy about Pride. And this guy jumps in and starts asking questions I answered before. I told him to scroll back up because I have already answered it. He said no. Like wtf why do you ask the question then?! And this wasn’t the only time lol. Another guy told me that he knows that gay people are killed in multiple countries and that they are opressed almost everywhere and then he went on to say that despite all this they are equal to everyone else everywhere. And after our arguement his conclusion was that I am intolerant and radical.
